Delfine Paolini is a New York-based writer and filmmaker.
Part of the New York punk scene as a teenager, photographing live shows, Delfine met legendary photographer Mick Rock and gained the opportunity to become his intern. This experience encouraged her to study visual arts as a means to accompany her writing with imagery.
Growing up with Eastern European idols, such as Krzysztof Kieslowski and Andrei Tarkovsky, Delfine set out to create films that engaged the viewer with poetic storytelling and experimental imagery in the hope of ushering individuals toward a more nostalgic experience.
Her work was discovered and championed by famed WME agent Johnnie Planco, who represented her for several years before his passing. Planco, who represented such directors as John Cassavetes, Paul Schrader and Robert Altman, was instrumental in guiding her as a filmmaker, and set her on a path toward becoming a director.
As a writer, Delfine has had multiple scripts optioned by award winning producers, such as Rene Bastian, and has developed content with French filmmaker Mathieu Kassovitz for HBO.
When she is not filmmaking, Delfine is in a punk band with Rob Huddleston, the lead singer and guitarist of the famed punk band Ann Beretta.
